Personally I like this way better as well since it makes it slightly harder for slide and fortress type decks. Unless a majority of folks want it a different way, I think it makes sense to go with the normal tournament rules.

Jayjester - I'm callin you out! Last league you called me out, but I think we both had too many before-noon whiskeys at Charlie's Place because we couldn't find each other in the town square to settle things. This time, it's on!

It might be my luck, but he seems to always be able to kick out or turn into draws at least two of my dudes even on turn one. Later on it is even worse.Tbh, I really like his deck and I actually think it is my " favourite" deck ever I played against (I rate very highly how well it is build and how good synergy between the cards he uses is),but at the same time I don't like how you "have to" play against it, especially the fact that a big, turn one shootout is the best way to counter it ( before he gets 8 cards and starts cycling).

I will probably exclude them from my decks in order to keep it a little easier on myself. But if people feel comfortable playing with proxies, then they should definitely be able to play with tourney legal cards.

Not very many responses about the Showstopper question... do we leave it as an issue to be decided between the 2 players prior to playing? If one player isn't comfortable with proxies, then Showstopper is not allowed?

Sorry if this sounds like I'm a jerk. If showstopper isn't ready, I won't be playing showstopper, unless my opponent wants to proxy. Then I'll switch to my showstopper deck, which I don't think they'll want.

The Showstopper, using proxies, will only be allowed if both players explicitly agree before the match starts. If nothing is said either way, the default will be assumed that Showstopper is not allowed. If the set becomes added to the OCTGN client, it will be immediately legal for our league.
